MATH 350 - Geometry

Semester Offered: Second Semester
Credits (Range): 3 hours
Attribute: 3NS, QP-F
This course takes a modern approach to geometry based on group theory and the Erlangen Programm making possible the survey of a wide spectrum of geometries, Euclidean and non-Euclidean. Geometries treated include Moebius geometry, hyperbolic geometry, elliptic geometry and absolute geometry. The discovery of these geometries in the 19th century caused a scientific and philosophical revolution second only to the Copernican revolution.
